Hi,
Styles are recurrent in case of any infection in hair roots of eye lashes. It is also a sign of possible refractory error in eye sight. A consultation of ophthalmologist is needed to have exact cause and get a suitable prescription.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
